Hotel Presidente
The rooms are basic but big and spotlessly clean. The staff are very friendly and try to help whenever they can. The breakfast room is very stylish and the choice good with a nice range of general breakfast choices and local Costa Rican dishes. A good hotel.

Barceló San José
Very impressed better than what I thought clean rooms, clean hotel. The pool area was very nice. The buffet was actually very good with a lot of things to choose from the on-site restaurants and bar also was a hit very close to everything easy access as well. Highly recommend recommended.
